2007 CFBA Nominations: Best New Blog

Okay, nomination time for the 2007 College Football Blogger Awards. Orson has the categories and the nomination instructions. A few things to keep in mind:

First, for bloggers, the best way to nominate somebody or somebody's post is to post your nomination on your own blog and say why you feel that person or thing deserves consideration. Yes, it's work (believe me, I know -- I had to resort to a link dump last year), but conversation is the best way to accomplish some of the more important goals of this thing. We're all extraordinarily busy, and the blogosphere is growing so fast that it is impossible for any single person to keep up with it. I bet, though, that you, like me, were able to keep tabs on your own little piece of it. For instance, chances are that even Brian, Orson, Peter, and Kyle, who are all extremely well-read, are unaware of some of the new Tennessee blogs that popped up this year. By nominating them, I can shine a little attention on them and encourage some consideration for them. Likewise, I'm almost positive that there are new blogs of other conferences that are quite good even though I've never even heard of them. Hopefully, we'll all be exposed to some great new stuff this year.

Failing that, use a link dump (same thing as above, but without commentary). If you post something, remember to link to it in the comment thread of Orson's nomination post. In either case, and even if you don't post anything, use Brian's Nominating GIZMO.

Also, remember that readers and bloggers alike can nominate their favorites, so readers, leave your nominations in a nomination comment thread or post a diary, and in either case, use the Gizmo. Finally, remember that last year's winner in any given category cannot win this year. So, as Peter said, don't nominate EDSBS for Funniest Blog, even though it is. Check the 2006 Trophy Case if you're unsure.

All right then, a few to kick things off here:
